CHAMPLAIN COLLEGE

of Plattsburgh*, New York

(the late, if unlamented - NOT the newer #
Champlain College of Burlington, Vermont,
nor any of the others that keep coming out of the woodwork!)

This page has now been visited times since the counter was installed.

The seal of ACUNY (not Champlain, alone), with Mohawk, Sampson, and Champlain,

* - The city in the far northeastern corner of New York State,
on the northwestern shore of Lake Champlain,
just south of the Canadian border and Montréal, is Plattsburg (no "h");
the Pennsylvania city far to the southwest, has an h on the end - Pittsburgh -
but Champlain College was located in Plattsburg
(no matter what they call it now!).

[Ah!  But see Spelling on the main page.]

If you love the North Country or the Adirondack Mountains, you'll love the Adirondack Museum smack dab in the heart of the Adirondacks at Blue Mountain Lake, New York.  It tells the story of the Adirondacks far better than any book could.  I heartily recommend a visit!  If you can't get there, you may wish to visit my Adirondacks page.

You will find some yarns about my time at Champlain there.

Notable Alumnus - In the Spring 2005 issue (actually issued in 2007) of the NRHS BULLETIN, Volume 70, the journal of the NATIONAL RAILWAY HISTORICAL SOCIETY, on page 4, is a feature article about famed railroad photographer Jim Shaughnessy, of whom I've known for many years now (and whom I've met).  What I did NOT know about Jim Shaughnessy, a life-long resident of Troy, New York, is that he applied to RPI ( Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute) there but lacked the math skills required and so went to Champlain for the 1951-52 school year and then transferred to RPI, from which he graduated in 1955 in Civil Engineering.   new.gif (24 Jul 07)

If you think this admonition and the one at the top of the page are a gag, think again!
I have had a steady trickle of requests for application forms - really, truly.
